The President’s Record on National Security

President Obama is committed to keeping the sacred trust we hold with members of our nation’s all-volunteer military. The President has fought to expand and improve benefits for veterans and their families—from access to the health care they need to the education and job opportunities they deserve when they return home.

The President and his administration, along with the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden, have secured commitments from private sector companies to hire unemployed veterans and worked to make sure returning servicemembers can find work when they come home.

The President also took executive actions to help match veterans with potential employers, streamline the job search for returning servicemembers, and is working to provide veterans and their families better access to job training. Recently, the President announced his Veterans Jobs Corps initiative, which will put veterans back to work on a range of projects that benefit from the skills they developed in the military.

As part of the President’s plan to support American jobs, he signed into law the Returning Heroes and Wounded Warrior tax credits to encourage businesses to hire unemployed veterans and veterans with service-connected disabilities.

When President Obama took office, the U.S. was engaged in two wars and faced terrorist threats at home and abroad.

President Obama has refocused our security priorities to concentrate on the most serious threats facing our country, promote our values, and improve our standing in the world.

President Obama is committed to strengthening America’s leadership by maintaining a strong military and staying true to our values and ideals.

President Obama fulfilled his promise to responsibly and safely bring our troops home from Iraq, and is making sure returning service members have the support they need.

As recently as July 19, President Obama spoke about the threat of cyber security in an op ed piece in the Wall Street Journal. I’m glad President Obama understands that that threat to America’s business and personal lives is real and ever-present.

As much as we are a profit-making business, we also support Obama’s candidacy because we believe that the best man for President of the United Sates is the President of the United States.
